In the finale of 'Severance', Mark and Gemma's emotional kiss is interrupted by the severance technology, transforming them mid-kiss. Dichen Lachman, who plays Gemma, reflects on the unique opportunity to explore her character's many personalities and the importance of finding balance in performance. The scene's tight setting allowed the actors to play with various reactions and lines, emphasizing the show's intricate tone and the actors' need for spontaneity amid technical challenges.
"We're in such a small space, and it was one of those moments that we had the gift of time to just play with it a little bit to find the right balance."
Lachman's experience of finding Gemma and her 25(!) innie personalities was much looser, allowing room to experiment with complicated moments.
